No Bird Am I To Sing In June

For all of my proclaimed love of summer, I find myself melting under this sweltering heat. Even in the early morning the air feels as heavy as a blanket against your skin. Humidity hangs around our house like a seasonal garland we cannot remove and store in the attic. Why was the fall and winter so windy here on the shore when now everything has gone flat and still? I have taken to hiding away indoors, peering at the world through a window until the sun has dipped below the horizon. Only then does the outdoors seem hospitable again and cautiously I will venture out to wander along the beach or sit on swing sets.

P.S. The lovely people at Mark sent me a couple of classic summer staples. I love these espadrilles with the little black strip in the heel and the fedora is the perfect fit for me.

And around this area, the humidity gets really bad. But some days it's just not there. And it's perfect and amazing. (The last two days here have been like that.) I imagine it's the same in VA since it's just two hours north. Just hold out for those days!

This is such a great, breezy look! I love the back of your dress and it pairs so nicely with your denim jacket and cute hat. I know what you mean about the horrible humidity. The moment I step outside, it's like walking into a sauna!

Oh Girl!! It's only June too! What is up with the humidity:) Your outfit is too cute too. I love the detail of the back of the dress. Cutouts/straps in the back make the humidity a little more bearable.

I want the beautiful espadrilles!! As for the summer, it is summer everyday in my country with the humidity and all , lucky you to still survive all kinds of weather, when I went to another country which was windy,I was freesing my ass off :p
